As Chen Mo completed his selection, he finally got his first high-level skill!
I originally thought it was the same as before, the skill had changed color and was just a slight improvement.
But I never thought that after the skill was upgraded from the middle level to the upper level, it would undergo a qualitative change!
[Concentric Corpse Army·Red]
[Occupation]: Skeleton Mage
[Cooling]: 5 seconds
[Effect]: Consume 100 points of energy to summon a skeleton monster with "2000+occupation star rating*200" that only lasts for 60 minutes (the skeleton monster's occupation can be designated by yourself, and it will carry the transmogrified weapon of the corresponding occupation).
The skeleton monster's attributes are linked to your intelligence and spirit "Life = Spirit*10, Double Attack = Intelligence*3", and its attributes are enhanced by all attributes equal to your "Professional Star*20%".
Characteristics - Explosive Bomb, Resurrection, Corpse Poison, Invisibility, Holy, Concentric.
The substantial increase in the number of summons is nothing, the key is the introduction in parentheses later.
"It's cool, you can finally designate the profession of the skeleton monster by yourself!"
Chen Mo felt very happy when he saw this improvement.
He thought he could only summon skeleton monsters of specific professions after reaching level 15 and possessing the elite undead summoning skill.
As a result, now that his skills have been upgraded to the upper level, his normal summoning skills can finally summon the skeleton monsters of the desired profession according to his own wishes.
The emergence of this effect has greatly improved the practicality of this summoning skill!
After the synthesis was completed, Chen Mo immediately summoned 3,400 invisible and superimposed skeleton monsters around him with a click of the staff.
Then they dispersed them all to various parts of the town to investigate.
He himself slowly entered the temple.
It seemed that it heard Chen Mo's footsteps, and the strange creature seemed very alert.
As soon as Chen Mo entered the temple, it quickly squirmed and hid in a dark corner.
This dark corner seems to be completely integrated with the darkness around it.
If you don't look carefully, you really can't spot him.
But Chen Mo relied on perception. No matter where he hid, it would be of no use.
"No need to hide, I have already seen you. I am an adventurer from afar. This village seems to have been attacked by some dark force. Are you a villager in this village?"
Chen Mo tried to communicate with this strange creature.
The reason why he did not judge the other party as a monster was because when his pioneer perception ability obtained the other party's information, the other party turned out to be a villager.
That's why Chen Mo asked this question.
"Cuckoo, coo, coo, coo, coo..."
After learning that Chen Mo was an adventurer, Meatball was obviously very excited, and it squirmed out from the darkness where it was hiding.
It seemed that he wanted to say something to Chen Mo, but as soon as he said it, everything turned into a cooing sound.
Can't communicate normally at all.
Seemingly knowing that his current state was not conducive to communication, a small tentacle suddenly stretched out from the ball of flesh and pointed at the inner hall of the temple.
"Is there anything in there?"
Chen Mo curiously walked to the door of the inner hall.
"Miss Zhao, be careful! There is a monster behind you."
Just when Chen Mo was about to open the door, Lin Ranhai had already entered the temple.
As soon as he came in, he saw an extremely disgusting meatball following behind Chen Mo.
Even though he thought this monster was going to attack Chen Mo.
The long sword in his hand flashed, and he was ready to strike.
"Don't panic! These are villagers."
Seeing that Lin Ranhai was about to kill important NPCs, Chen Mo quickly spoke up to stop him.
"Village!?"
Lin Ranhai looked at the strange ball of flesh in front of him in shock and felt a wave of nausea.
"Could this thing be a villager?"
He was a little unbelievable.
"This village has been attacked. He must have been subject to some kind of dark curse."
As soon as Chen Mo finished speaking, the meat ball immediately squirmed strongly and started to scream.
It seems that he agrees with Chen Mo's point of view.
"Looking at its reaction, it seems to be true."
Lin Ranhai restrained his sword light and stood still again.
But he didn't completely let down his guard against this meatball.
At this time, Chen Mo had already opened the door to the inner hall.
I saw that this place was already dilapidated, and disgusting black mucus was flowing everywhere in the room.
Chen Mo didn't even want to enter.
As the door opened, the little meat ball quickly squirmed in. Soon it found a book covered in black mucus from among the ruins.
As he put the book into his body and took it out again, all the disgusting black mucus on the book disappeared.
After cleaning the book, he held it up with his small tentacles and brought it to Chen Mo.
"'Zorosa Rites'?"
Chen Mo immediately looked through it.
It turns out that people in the village believe in the so-called god of Zorosa and hold relevant ceremonies every year.
However, under the protection of the God of Zoosa, the village has good weather every year.
But the good times did not last long, after ten years of believing in the God of Zorosa.
Suddenly one day, strange changes began to happen to the villagers one after another!
One after another they began to turn into strange meatballs.
At first they will retain their sanity, but as time goes by, their sanity begins to disappear, and eventually they become terrifying monsters without any consciousness and only know how to hunt.
There is no mention of the solution to this monster in the Book of Rites.
But according to the final record in the Book of Rites, this change should be related to the god Zorosa.
Because the rumored god of Zorosa is a huge ball of flesh covered with tentacles and eyes.
"It seems that the root of the problem lies with the god of Zorosa."
After Lin Ranhai read it, he glanced at the huge flesh sculpture covered with tentacles and eyes on the wall of this strange temple.
How could anyone believe in such disgusting stuff?
Chen Mo pondered for a moment, glanced at the meat ball next to him and said, "Where are the people in the village now? Did they all kill each other? Why are you still in the village?"
Chen Mo put the book on the ground and asked him to point it out in order.
Although the languages and characters of everyone in the entire universe are different, after awakening and becoming a professional, they will be influenced by the way of heaven and can automatically convert the languages and characters of each race they see and hear into the languages and characters they are familiar with.
Unless what the other party said was not serious language at all, just like the cooing sound of this meat ball just now.
That is purely a meaningless statement.
As Rouduan pointed out each word one by one.
Chen Mo understood that this meat dumpling was the priest of the original village.
Due to successive years of poor harvests, the villagers in the village began to sneer at the harvest god they had always believed in.
In the end, in their extremely angry mood, the statue of the God of Harvest was smashed, his name was cast aside, and the entire temple was almost burned down.
In order to save the temple, the priest had to turn to the god of Xuesha who had been tempting him to establish his own faith.
The priest knew very well that the so-called god of Zorosa was actually an evil god.
There will be no good results if you believe in him for a long time.
But the Harvest Goddess lost his voice, so he had to rely on this evil god to calm the crazy villagers.
As the priest brought the faith of the God of Zorosa to the village, the lives of the villagers finally improved.
With good harvests every year, everyone naturally has a higher degree of faith in the God of Zoosa.
During this period, the priest kept trying to contact the Harvest Goddess, but unfortunately it was completely useless.
At that time, the priest knew that things were bad.
And the result was absolutely no different from what he had guessed.
Human greed is endless.
After their food and clothing were satisfied, the villagers began to pray for other benefits.
The benefits they prayed for were fulfilled, and the villagers' faith in the God of Zhoosa became stronger and stronger.
As the faith becomes more and more stable, the power of the God of Zorosa becomes more and more powerful, and the villagers become more and more greedy!
The more greedy the villagers become, the more they believe in the God of Zousa, and the more powerful the God of Zoosa is.
The cycle continues like this.
There will only be two results!
The first villager is crazy!
After the second god of Zorosa gathered enough faith, he directly killed the donkey and finally harvested a wave of human negative emotions.
He is an evil god. He can eat religious offerings when he enters, and he can absorb negative energy from humans to fill himself when he retreats.
After being unable to satisfy people's endless greed, he changed his goal and changed it to creating negative energy for mankind!
The priest will explain everything.
"I'm afraid it's difficult to deal with things with the word "god". Lin Ranhai glanced at Chen Mo and said with some fear, "If this quest line continues, the final BOSS may not have to fight a god-level monster!"
What a terrifying monster a god-level monster is!
Even if there are a hundred powerful people who come together, it may not be enough to fight.
There are only two of them here now.
Lin Ranhai naturally felt very guilty.
But now it's too late for him to change his main line.
[Tip from Heaven: Congratulations on discovering the secret of the decay of Qiluo Town. You have obtained the SSS-level main mission - "The Change of Qiluo Town". Please explore according to the mission prompts!
You have already obtained the main mission and cannot change it. Please work hard to complete it.】
[Change in Qiluo Town - Phase 1 Mission]: Find a way to turn the priest back into a human before he loses his mind or is killed by other mutated monsters. Please note that failure of the mission will double the difficulty of the remaining process!
"It's over. We are forced to receive SSS-level missions."
Lin Ranhai felt a little broken.
Did you agree to accept the mission from the Dark Lord? Why did you inexplicably accept the mission from the Evil God of Zoroa!
Now the rules of the stars restrict them from teleporting away.
I received another SSS level dungeon mission that I couldn't complete at all.
Now it's better, it's hard not to want to die.
Seeing Lin Ranhai slump like a deflated rubber ball, Chen Mo smiled and patted his shoulder and said: "Not even SSS-level missions. The monsters in this mission will only become more powerful. Maybe they can be used
Designed to kill those Yongxing system people."
"I hope so..."
Now that we have come to this point, what can we do?
Lin Ranhai could only give himself a one-in-a-ten thousand chance of surviving.
After learning the specific reason, Chen Mo asked the priest again if he knew the solution.
But the priest said he didn't know, but he could feel that there was an energy from the west of the town flowing into the town's well.
He seriously suspected that the people in the town turned into meatball monsters after drinking water mixed with this weird energy.
"On the west side of town."
Chen Mo nodded and said, "You continue to hide and pay attention to your safety. I will go over there and take a look."
The meat ball squirmed a few times and then hid in the shadow next to it.
Obviously he is saying don't worry, I have already hid.
Chen Mo smiled and said to Lin Ranhai: "You patrol near this church and protect him. I will go to the west to check the situation."
"Wait a minute, are you going alone!?" Lin Ranhai said in shock, "There may be a mini-BOSS over there. This is an SSS-level mission. Even if it's just a mini-BOSS, it's an incredible existence."
"Don't worry, I'm not going there alone!"
As Chen Mo removed the invisibility of the surrounding skeleton monsters...
"What's going on!?" Lin Ranhai was shocked, thinking it was a lot of monsters appearing out of nowhere.
There are densely packed skeleton monsters with weapons everywhere.
"Don't be afraid, this is my summon."
"Summon...summons? So many!!!"
Lin Ranhai glanced at the dense surroundings and couldn't count how many there were around!
"You can actually summon so many! This is too powerful! How many are there?"
he asked in shock.
"A thousand."
Chen Mo just revealed a thousand of them at random, and there were still more than two thousand invisible, otherwise they wouldn't be able to squeeze through.
"One...a thousand!?" Lin Ranhai was completely speechless now. He looked at Chen Mo with a wry smile and said, "Then I'm relieved. You can go with peace of mind. I will take good care of him."
The opponent has so many skeleton monsters charging into the battle, so there is no danger, so what do you have to worry about?
If he had so many younger brothers, he would just hide in a safe position and send his younger brothers up, without putting himself in danger.
I had heard that the other party was a necromancer before, but I never thought it was a necromancer with such high-level skills.
These are a thousand monsters, and all of them have weapons. The skill level must be at least high level!
Lin Ranhai's guess was correct. Chen Mo's synthesis skills were basically super-level existences.
When he used the purple skill before, he could summon more than a thousand of them, but his purple skill is actually comparable to the high-level red skills that normal people get!
By leaving Lin Ranhai behind, Chen Mo could act more smoothly and not have to cover up everything.
He flew directly into the sky and flew towards the west of the town.
As the pioneers continued to sense their abilities, Chen Mo discovered that there was really a problem on the west side of the town.
There is a lot of black mucus remaining on the ground, and some meat balls can also be seen squirming nearby.
Chen Mo directly skipped them and flew further away.
It wasn't until he flew more than a thousand meters out of the town that Chen Mo finally sensed something unusual.
In a cave to the west of the town, there is this huge tentacle monster with disgusting black mucus flowing all over its body.
Although his appearance is somewhat similar to that of the meatballs near the town, he is obviously not from the same class.
There is no need to lose the detection skill. Chen Mo can obtain the opponent's information by relying on the pioneer's perception ability!
